I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song
Im twenty-two now, but I wont be for long
People ask me when will I grow up to be a man
When all the girls I knew at school are already pushing prams
I loved you then as I love you still
Though I put you on a pedestal, you put me on the pill
I dont feel bad about letting you go
I just feel sad about letting you know
I dont want to change the world; Im not looking for a New England
F E --> G
Are you looking for another girl?
I dont want to change the world; Im not looking for a New England
Are you looking for another girl?
I loved the words you wrote to me
But that was bloody yesterday
I cant survive on what you send
Every time you need a friend
I saw two shooting stars last night
I wished on them, but they were only satellites
Its wrong to wish on space hardware
I wish, I wish, I wish youd care
I dont want to change the world; Im not looking for a New England
F E --> G
Are you looking for another girl?
I dont want to change the world; Im not looking for a New England
¡KEY CHANGE!
Are you looking for another girl?
My dreams were full of strange ideas
My mind was set despite the fears
But other things got in the way
I never asked that boy to stay
Once upon a time at home
I sat beside the telephone
Waiting for someone to pull me through
When at last it didnt ring, I knew it wasnt you
I dont want to change the world; Im not looking for a New England
G F--> A
Are you looking for another girl?
I dont want to change the world; Im not looking for a New England
Are you looking for another?
I dont want to change the world; Im not looking for a New England
Are you looking for another girl? × 2
